Freedman's inequality is a supermartingale counterpart to Bennett's inequality. This result shows that the tail probabilities of a supermartingale is controlled by the quadratic characteristic and a uniform upper bound for the…
We propose a boundary regularity condition for the $M_n(\mathbb{C})$-valued subordination functions in free probability to prove the local limit theorem and delocalization of eigenvectors for polynomials in two random matrices. We prove…
This article concerns two conjectures of M. P. Murthy. For Murthy's conjecture on complete intersections, the major breakthrough has still been the result proved by Mohan Kumar in 1978. In this article we improve "Mohan Kumar's bound" when…
In 1927, Artin conjectured that any integer other than -1 or a perfect square generates the multiplicative group $\mathbb{Z}/p\mathbb{Z}^\times$ for infinitely many $p$. In \cite{MoSt}, Moree and Stevenhagen considered a two-variable…
A well-known result of von zur Gathen asserts that a non-exceptional permutation polynomial of degree $n$ over $\mathbb{F}_{q}$ exists only if $q<n^{4}$. With the help of the Weil bound for the number of $\mathbb{F}_{q}$-points on an…
Let $M$ be a compact $n$-dimensional Riemannian manifold with nonnegative Ricci curvature and mean convex boundary $\partial M$. Assume that the mean curvature $H$ of the boundary $\partial M$ satisfies $H \geq (n-1) k >0$ for some positive…
Consider the $2n$-by-$2n$ matrix $M=(m_{i,j})_{i,j=1}^{2n}$ with $m_{i,j} = 1$ for $i,j$ satisfying $|2i-2n-1|+|2j-2n-1| \leq 2n$ and $m_{i,j} = 0$ for all other $i,j$, consisting of a central diamond of 1's surrounded by 0's. When $n \geq…
In this paper, we present an alternative proof of a finiteness theorem due to Bombieri, Masser and Zannier concerning intersections of a curve in the multiplicative group of dimension n with algebraic subgroups of dimension n-2. The proof…
We give new lower and upper bounds on the permanent of a doubly stochastic matrix. Combined with previous work, this improves on the deterministic approximation factor for the permanent. We also give a combinatorial application of the lower…
We prove bounds on statistical distances between high-dimensional exchangeable mixture distributions (which we call \emph{permutation mixtures}) and their i.i.d. counterparts. Our results are based on a novel method for controlling $\chi^2$…
Barry Simon conjectured in 2005 that the Szeg\H{o} matrices, associated with Verblunsky coefficients $\{\alpha_n\}_{n\in\mathbb{Z}_+}$ obeying $\sum_{n = 0}^\infty n^\gamma |\alpha_n|^2 < \infty$ for some $\gamma \in (0,1)$, are bounded for…
Let $A=[A_{ij}]$ be an $n\times n$ operator matrix where each $A_{ij}$ is a bounded linear operator on a complex Hilbert space $\mathcal{H}$. With other numerical radius bounds via contraction operators, we show that $w(A) \leq…

Let $X_1,..., X_N\in\R^n$ be independent centered random vectors with log-concave distribution and with the identity as covariance matrix. We show that with overwhelming probability at least $1 - 3 \exp(-c\sqrt{n}\r)$ one has $ \sup_{x\in…
G.W. Mackey's celebrated obstruction theory for projective representations of locally compact groups was remarkably generalized by J. M. G. Fell and R. S. Doran to the wide area of saturated Banach *-algebraic bundles. Analogous obstruction…
We establish the multiplicity conjecture of Herzog, Huneke, and Srinivasan about the multiplicity of graded Cohen-Macaulay algebras over a field, for codimension two algebras and for Gorenstein algebras of codimension three. In fact, we…
We show that the border support rank of the tensor corresponding to two-by-two matrix multiplication is seven over the complex numbers. We do this by constructing two polynomials that vanish on all complex tensors with format…
There has been recent interest in lower bounds for the principal specializations of Schubert polynomials $\nu_w := \mathfrak S_w(1,\dots,1)$. We prove a conjecture of Yibo Gao in the setting of $1243$-avoiding permutations that gives a…
For a given class of structured matrices $\mathbb S$, we find necessary and sufficient conditions on vectors $x,w\in \C^{n+m}$ and $y,z \in \C^{n}$ for which there exists $\Delta=[\Delta_1~\Delta_2]$ with $\Delta_1 \in \mathbb S$ and…
Let $A=\begin{bmatrix} A_{ij} \end{bmatrix}$ be an $n\times n$ operator matrix, where each $A_{ij}$ is a bounded linear operator on a complex Hilbert space. Among other numerical radius bounds, we show that $w(A)\leq w(\hat{A})$, where…
